Extended Producer Responsibility in BC

  • BC Recycling Regulation - requires producers to
  • BC Recycling Regulation - requires producers to

collect and recycle the products that they make and sell.

  • Provides producers with a financial incentive to

make and sell products that :

  • are more durable, reusable and recyclable
  • contain less toxic material
  • never become waste.

Canada-wide Action Plan for EPR (2009)

Provides all provinces and territories with a harmonized set of principles and a common schedule of products Phase 1 (by 2015) Phase 2 (by 2017) Phase 1 (by 2015)

  • packaging and printed materials,
  • electronics and electrical
  • mercury-containing products

(including lamps),

  • household hazardous and

special wastes, and

  • automotive products

Phase 2 (by 2017)

  • construction and demolition

materials

  • Combined population of 52 million and a GDP of $2.5

trillion.

  • 7th largest economy in the world – by 2030 this Pacific

Coast economy will surpass $4 trillion.

  • In November 2010, PCC leaders announced a new

initiative to collaborate on Marine Debris and Product

  • Stewardship. British Columbia, California, Washington,

Oregon are working together to share Product Stewardship information and expertise.

The Future…..

  • Magnify the financial incentive to producers
  • Landfill bans from local governments
  • EPR program performance improvement

19

  • EPR program performance improvement
  • Expanded market size subject to EPR laws
  • Closed Loop Supply Chains
  • Producers shift from sellers of products to service

providers

  • Sell the benefit of the product versus the product

itself

Retreaded Tires (Commercial Fleets)

Dimension Practices Technology of

  • reman. products

Same as new products Use of reman. products Same as new products: full replacement for new tires Pricing of reman. products

  • Fee for service (contract): $/mile on the road
  • Retail: 45-75% off price of new tire

products

  • Retail: 45-75% off price of new tire

Sources of returns Automatic upon a tire replacement (However, tires can be retreated only 2 to 5 times) Remanufacturing cost About 25% of the cost of a new tire Competitive landscape

  • Many retreaders who use retreading technology

licensed by OEMs (Michelin, Bridgestone, Goodyear) .

  • OEMs have a small direct participation on market
